Although we’ve already laid eyes on the trailer for ABC’s upcoming horror series “The River,” it isn’t stopping company brass from adding to the production. You see, “Greek” star Scott Michael Foster (seen right) has just struck a deal to appear as a recurring character in the Amazonian-set skein.
As you may recall, Foster joins Bruce Greenwood, Joe Anderson, Paul Blackthorne, Eloise Mumford (below), Daniel Zacapa and Thomas Kretschmann. Word is Foster will portray a thrill-seeking, adventurous cameraman who may be hiding a secret.
Sure to air near Halloween, “The River” is set in motion when: Famed explorer Dr. Emmet Cole went looking for magic deep in the uncharted Amazon and never returned. Now, the shocking truth about his disappearance is out there, somewhere, just waiting to be discovered. To the millions of kids who grew up watching his nature show, Dr. Cole was a hero. To his own son Lincoln, he was more of an enigma. Now, six months after he vanished, Lincoln is finally ready to bury the past when Dr. Cole’s cagey ex-producer Clark film the mission documentary-style. The mixed crew of old friends and new acquaintances includes the sexy and resourceful Lena, loyal mechanic Emilio and lethal bodyguard Captain Kurt Brynildson.
Once they find The Magus, the real adventure begins. In the search for Dr. Cole, they will encounter a scary new mystery each week, while struggling with their own personal jealousies, insecurities, secrets and desires. As they venture further into the Amazon, away from the world they know, the crew of The Magus will discover a place where one bad decision can be fatal, and where powerful magic is as real as science.
